anyone switch doctors mid pregnancy???

I started my pregnancy with an obgyn and just decided i didn't like the options at the hospital and didn't like the idea of an epidural and the doctor isn't for natural birth so I decided to switch to a midwife I am a little nervous cause the hospital is further away but i like that i will have more options for my labor and delivery just wondering if anyone else is feeling nervous about the switch?

I'll be switching to a birth center after my gender ultrasound Feb 4th. My first appointment there will be the end of February. I waited so long because they don't do ultrasounds at the birth center. oh and the place I'm going is an hour away so that makes me nervous if I'll make it there but they said it's nothing to worry about.

My Drs staff is like you say pretty bad, the receptionist actually told me it's fraud to have two insurances and I will go to jail, without even knowing my situation. I was so mad and was thinking about switching, but I love my Dr, his is very good and experienced. He delivered my son. So I thought they will have to suck it up if they don't like me but I won't switch ! :)))) It's his clinic and I can't see him anywhere else. But man those b....s in his office like wild dogs. Grrrrr

I just switched to a midwife this week (I'm 18 weeks) from my OBGYN and feel great about it. I don't regret it at all. Mind you, my OBYGN only took the time to see me once in 4 months, so I never got really attached anyways. My first appointment with my midwife lasted an hour, much better than the rushed 20 min I had with my doctor. Good luck:)

Yep, I did a few changes with my first, none with my second, and my third I got a midwife at like 28wks.

With this pregnancy I was thought to be high risk, but don't like the OB much and after seeing some specialist it seems my issues shouldn't effect labor so I found a midwife who is willing to take me on that delivers in hospital that I will be seeing for the first time on the 7th I will be 20wks by then :) The hospital is an hr away but so worth it for me :) so nope your not a lone :)
